NVIDIA Corporation released the GeForce Game Ready 595.71 driver for GeForce video cards this Monday. The version replaces the previous driver 595.59 which was withdrawn from circulation after reports of serious failures in fan control. The new package brings specific optimizations for the game Resident Evil Requiem and includes fixes for several titles and editing software.
Users of RTX 30, 40, and 50 series cards report that the issue with stopped fans has been resolved. Softwares monitoring now correctly detects all GPU fans. The update also adds dedicated optimization profiles for the latest release of Capcom.
Driver 595.71 also includes tweaks to improve stability in specific game scenarios and professional applications.
New NVIDIA driver fixes critical fan flaws
The previous version 595.59 caused one or more fans on GeForce cards to stop working. Isso affected proper cooling and generated false alerts in hardware monitoring tools.
With update 595.71 these behaviors were eliminated as confirmed by initial tests. Fan control is back to normal on RTX 30, 40 and 50 series models.
Optimized support for release of Resident Evil Requiem
The driver features Game Ready profiles dedicated to the Resident Evil Requiem title of Capcom. Esses adjustments aim to deliver better performance and stability in the newly released game.
Gamers using RTX cards may notice gains in frame rates and reduced stuttering at high settings. Optimization includes full support for NVIDIA upscaling technologies.
The package also fixes visual and performance issues reported in previous versions of the driver.
Specific fixes for affected games and software
Several bugs have been addressed in popular titles. Em The Ascent black bars have been eliminated on RTX 50 series cards. Total War: THREE KINGDOMS no longer has green artifacts.
FINAL FANTASY XII The Zodiac Age no longer suffers from crashes after updates. 2019’s Call of Duty Modern Warfare fixes corrupted images in specific scenes. Quantum Break records performance improvement in the fourth part of chapter one.
In Blackmagic Design DaVinci Resolve software the driver resolves crashes related to AV1 decoding with multiple OBU blocks.
New issue detected limits performance on RTX 50 GPUs
User reports indicate that the 595.71 driver applies a restriction on the core voltage of GPUs. Isso prevents cards from reaching maximum boost frequencies even with manual overclocking enabled.
Independent tests carried out on an MSI GeForce RTX 5090 SUPRIM X show that the frequency is below 3 GHz. The voltage is limited to values close to 1 V under heavy loads.
The result is a performance drop that can reach 16% in benchmarks. The issue mainly affects RTX 50 series models and previously configured overclocks.
Users who have applied manual voltage and clock adjustments see an immediate reduction after installing version 595.71.
Tests confirm clock and voltage reduction in high-end models
Several specialized sites have carried out controlled measurements with the same overclock setting. In previous drivers like the 591.86, the RTX 5090 maintained voltages between 1,020 V and 1,030 V with clocks above 3,015 MHz in tools like FurMark.
After installing 595.71 the values drop to 1005 V to 1010 V with occasional spikes at 1 V. The sustained frequency no longer exceeds the 3 GHz barrier even without changes to the BIOS or tuning software.
Energy consumption also decreases proportionally. Essa combination results in measurable performance loss in games and synthetic tests.
Experts recommend that owners of RTX 50 cards monitor voltage and clock values before and after the update to identify the real impact on their systems.
Recommendations for impacted users
Anyone who notices reduced performance can revert to previous 591 series drivers. NVIDIA has not yet officially commented on the observed voltage limitation.
The 595.71 download remains available on the company’s official website for those who need fan fixes and Resident Evil Requiem support. Atualizações future reports should address the new reported behavior.
